STOCKHOLM, Sweden — WORD IS BOND a documentary ﬁlmed by Sacha Jenkins that examines the transformative power of lyrics in the world of hip-hop music comes to the 2018 CinemAfrica Film Festival in Stockholm, Sweden. The film festival which runs from February 26 – March 4, 2018, celebrates its 20th Anniversary.

The Documentary goes inside of hip-hop music, which was born on the streets of the South Bronx and has now taken root globally, and the young poets of New York have helped to spawn regional dialects everywhere. Through dynamic archival footage, in-depth interviews and verite excursions with artists like Nas, Tech9, J Cole, Rapsody and Anderson .Paak (and many more), Word is Bond explores the many dimensions that hip hop poetics occupy.
